174: He is not qualified to enjoy your efforts
“An Opportunity, hand it over to you?
Help you improve your strength?
Everyone present, upon hearing these words, all looked displeased, and their gazes towards Liu Hong became increasingly hostile.
However, none of them spoke, instead looking at Yu Xiu.
“Is this your own intention, or Chairman Liu’s intention?”
Yu Xiu hadn't shown any expression from beginning to end, but instead retorted.
“This is, of course, my dad’s intention. He said that you two have a good relationship, and that he and Uncle Yu are sworn brothers, so as long as he says the word, you’ll definitely agree.”
Liu Hong's eyes darted around, and he began to talk nonsense with a serious Face.
As his voice fell, seeing that Yu Xiu didn’t speak, he quickly added, “Brother Yu, you wouldn’t refuse, would you?”
“Could it be that my dad was bragging?”
“Oh, I really believed him. I didn't expect his relationship with you wasn't that good after all. I was also deceived by him.”
“Before, when we were in Jiangtan City, Uncle Yu even came to my house for dinner, and I also saw that little girl, Qianqian.”
“Brother Yu, that little girl Qianqian is so polite. I was even thinking, when she gets a bit older, I’d introduce one of my cousins to her, and we’d become even closer relatives.”
Listening to Liu Hong’s words, Yu Xiu, who had been expressionless, now frowned.
Especially when his sister Yu Qianqian was mentioned, Yu Xiu’s Face suddenly darkened.
“Are you sure this is Chairman Liu’s intention?” Yu Xiu said coldly, “I advise you to tell the truth.”
At this moment.
Everyone around knew that Yu Xiu was angry, and their Faces all turned cold.
However, Liu Hong.
Seemingly unaware of this, he still feigned anger and said, “Brother Yu, are you doubting me?”
“Could I possibly joke with you about something like this? My dad definitely said it.”
At this moment, Chu Tianjiao said coldly, “I advise you to tell the truth.”
“Old Master and I know Chairman Liu’s character better than you do.”
“I just didn’t expect Chairman Liu to have such a foolish son.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Hong said coldly, “What is your status? Old Master and I are brothers. What right does a junior like you have to interrupt? Apologize to me immediately, or I’ll have Yu Xiu fire you.”
Chu Tianjiao suddenly smiled, “What is my status? Listen carefully, my name is Chu Tianjiao, Chu of the Qin Province Chu Family.”
“Chu, Chu Tianjiao?”
Liu Hong’s Face immediately stiffened, “You are the Young Master of the Qin Province Chu Family?”
“Whether I am the Young Master, I don’t know; you’ll have to ask my grandfather.” Chu Tianjiao smiled faintly, turned to Old Master Chu, and asked, “Grandfather, am I the Young Master of our Chu Family?”
“Get lost, do you think I’m the Emperor? You’re an embarrassment.”
Old Master Chu glared fiercely at Chu Tianjiao, and only then did Liu Hong realize that the old man in front of him was the Old Master of the Chu Family.
He was so scared that his legs instantly went weak.
If it were people from other provinces, their fear of the Chu Family might not be so great.
But people from Qin Province are very much in awe of the Chu Family, and of course, they also have respect.
“I, I...”
Liu Hong cautiously glanced at Old Master Chu, stuttering and not knowing what to say.
It was at this moment.
Chairman Liu and Xiao Jing arrived.
Yu Xiu's side was already the focus of attention, and Liu Hong's act of secretly running over without Chairman Liu's knowledge was also discovered by Chairman Liu.
From afar, he also heard his son Liu Hong’s words, as well as Chu Tianjiao’s sarcasm.
He was completely terrified.
He never expected his son to actually be so foolish.
At this moment, including Xiao Jing beside him, their eyes towards Liu Hong were full of disgust.
“Yu Xiu, I...”
Chairman Liu opened his mouth, and just as he was about to explain, Yu Xiu waved his hand and said, “No need to explain, I know this isn’t what you meant.”
Beside him, Chu Tianjiao also walked up to Chairman Liu, hooked his arm over Chairman Liu’s shoulder, and teased, “Old Liu, Old Master and I still trust your character, no need for much explanation.”
When they were living in Jiangtan City before, Chairman Liu and the mayor also often came to Yu Xiu’s house.
As they interacted more, Chu Tianjiao also became more familiar with the two of them.
So, when Liu Hong said this was Chairman Liu’s intention, not only did Yu Xiu not believe it, but Chu Tianjiao also didn’t believe it.
“It’s just that!”
Saying this, Chu Tianjiao glanced at Liu Hong and said sarcastically, “Are you perhaps so busy with the affairs of Jiangtan City all year round that you don’t have time to go home?”
Chairman Liu nodded.
Jiangtan City has always been on the brink of collapse, and a slight misstep could lead to its merger.
So Chairman Liu and the mayor have been busy with the development of Jiangtan City all these years.
“That makes sense then.”
Chu Tianjiao chuckled strangely, “This guy Liu Hong is nothing like you! Besides, you’re often too busy to go home, so who knows…”
Chu Tianjiao paused, then said with a half-smile, “Don’t you agree?”
As these words came out.
Not only did the other people present understand the meaning behind Chu Tianjiao’s words, but Chairman Liu also understood, and immediately cursed, “Chu Tianjiao, you bastard, stop spreading rumors!”
“Liu Hong is my biological son; he was just spoiled by his mother and not properly educated, so stop spouting nonsense!”
Chu Tianjiao glanced at Chairman Liu, and seeing that he no longer had the cautious demeanor he had just now, he also chuckled, “Why are you so angry, Old Liu? You’re too petty; I was just joking.”
“Besides, we’re sworn brothers, so in a way, Liu Hong is my nephew, isn’t he? I also wouldn’t want him to not be my kin, don’t you agree…”
Bang!
As a result, before Chu Tianjiao could finish speaking, Yu Xiu directly kicked him.
“Old Master, what are you doing?” Chu Tianjiao also looked over with an innocent expression.
“What do you think I’m doing?” Yu Xiu snorted coldly, “Chairman Liu and my father are sworn brothers, and you and Chairman Liu are sworn brothers. Are you trying to be my uncle or something?”
As these words came out.
Old Master Chu delivered another kick.
Chu Tianjiao was completely bewildered.
“Grandfather, why are you doing this again?”
“You still know to call me Grandfather?” Old Master Chu snorted coldly, “I am also sworn brothers with Yu Xiu’s father. What, are you trying to defy heaven and earth, be my junior brother, and your father’s uncle?”
Hearing this, Chu Tianjiao's Face instantly turned green. How could this even be related?
“If you two want to hit me, just say so; I can’t beat you anyway. But you two don’t have to use such an excuse, do you?”
Chairman Liu beside him also showed a schadenfreude expression, then looked at Chu Tianjiao, “Brother Chu, you’re so careless. How can such a big person still be rolling on the ground like a child?”
Chairman Liu emphasized the words “Brother Chu” particularly heavily.
Chu Tianjiao also trembled upon hearing this, and cautiously looked at Yu Xiu and Old Master Chu.
He said with a bitter Face, “Uncle Liu, please don’t harm me! We’re about to enter the Qilin Relic; I don’t want to get injured!”
Chairman Liu laughed heartily, no longer bullying Chu Tianjiao, but walked over and kicked Liu Hong in the leg.
Only a cracking sound was heard.
Liu Hong’s legs were directly broken.
“Yu Xiu, regarding Liu Hong, I know you’re giving me Face, but it should be handled as it should; mistakes must be punished.”
Yu Xiu waved his hand, “No need, it’s just a small matter.”
Chairman Liu nodded and said, “Don’t worry, he won’t enter the Qilin Relic again. He is not qualified to obtain an Opportunity with the spot you worked hard for.”
